Best-selling author, designer, and web standards evangelist Jeffrey Zeldman has revisited his classic, industry-shaking guidebook. Updated in collaboration with co-author Ethan Marcotte, this third edition covers improvements and challenges in the changing environment of standards-based design. Written in the same engaging and witty style, making even the most complex information easy to digest, Designing with Web Standards remains your essential guide to creating sites that load faster, reach more users, and cost less to design and maintain. Substantially revised-packed with new ideas How will HTML5, CSS3, and web fonts change your work? Learn new strategies for selling standards Change what "IE6 support" means "Occasionally (very occasionally) you come across an author who makes you think, `This guy is smart! And he makes me feel smarter, because now I finally understand this concept.'" - Steve Krug, author of Don't Make Me Think and Rocket Surgery Made Easy "A web designer without a copy of Designing with Web Standards is like a carpenter without a level. With this third edition, Zeldman continues to be the voice of clarity; explaining the complex in plain English for the rest of us." - Dan Cederholm, author, Bulletproof Web Design and Handcrafted CSS "Jeffrey Zeldman sits somewhere between `guru' and `god' in this industry-and manages to fold wisdom and wit into a tale about WHAT web standards are, HOW standards-based coding works, and WHY we should care." - Kelly Goto, author, Web ReDesign 2.0: Workflow that Works "Some books are meant to be read. Designing with Web Standards is even more: intended to be highlighted, dogeared, bookmarked, shared, passed around, and evangelized, it goes beyond reading to revolution." - Liz Danzico, Chair, MFA Interaction Design, School of Visual Arts

I've read this book in French, which is, I think, a translation of the first edition...
This book is really good, but just a little basic.
If you're new to web standards (i.e. starting in web development or a long time developper who wants to get to new standards like CSS) then this book is really a must for you. If you're more advanced, it may be too basic.
It spends a lot of time on convincing you to adhere to web standards, which is good if you or your superior isn't convinced yet, but may a loss of time if you are...
It spends some time on CSS too, but don't go deep.
Overall, it's an excellent book to get you started with Web standards, but you'll want more books (on XHTML or CSS, for example) to go deeper after that.
